Citizen complains of drug use and safety issues in the city Skate Board Park

An adult citizen spoke up to city council this Tuesday night complaining about the drug abuse that is rampant at the Skate Board Park in Redmond.   He said he is one of the few adults that use the park and he is concerned for his safety when he is there.  He now goes with a buddy for safety.  He said kids between the ages of 10-18 have threatened him "to punch him in the face" for reporting drug abuse in the park.  He doesn't think it's safe for kids after school and that there should be supervision at the park.  He noticed there is no signage for "No Smoking" or "No Drugs" in the park and the city needs to do something about the problem.
